[Freeswitch-users] Recommended SIP IP Wifi Handsets?

[Michael Kennedy]

Thank you, Peter.

I also had not considered that option!

About 6-7-8+ years ago, we used these devices for some clients, and they 
worked reasonably well.

However, (for the sake of lurkers here!):
   - they were slow-ish,
   - they were very problematic in buildings where 3-phase was used, and 
in old buildings with mysterious/multiple mains runs,
   - they were very problematic if some desktop PCs had PSUs from 
specific manufacturers (presumably cheap-and-nasty devices). This was a 
huge problem, and required the replacement of apparently working PSUs is 
the PCs. No other office devices (faxes, monitors, photocopiers, 
kettles, microwaves even!, etc, etc, presented these problems).

So, we've not used them in the past few years - even though their 
performance might have improved significantly.

We'll certainly take another look at them, especially where the mains 
cabling is new/simple. Thank you.

   - Mike
